<p>September 21st-22nd Dinos Trigonis held his annual <strong>Pangps All-West Freshman Sophomore Camp</strong>. He had about 180 players from the West Coast from the 2027 and 2028 classes. About 20-25 players from our state were on hand. I have two articles and I will start with players that I have previously seen and then the next article will be newcomers. </p>
